Abstract
We collected molecular sequence data from the nuclear ribosomal ITS region and three plastid loci from multiple individuals of each species of Sanvitalia and additional members of the Zinniinae to create phylogenetic trees and study the evolutionary history of the clade. The alignments used for these trees is included here.

The data set contains two alignments, one from the ITS and one from the concatenated plastid loci. These alignments were used as the basis of the phylogenetic trees seen in the publication.
Description of the data and file structure
Both alignments are in fasta format which is compatible with many phylogenetic programs. The concatenated data set is in the following order: psbA-matK, trnH-psbA, and trnL-trnF.
Methods
Forward and Reverse Sanger reads were assembled de novo in Geneious Prime. Contigs were aligned with MAFFT. The three plastid loci alignments were concatenated.
